In PA it is legal to track any wounded animal onto posted or private property
Oh no its not, you dont have the right to tresspass to pursue your previously wounded animal, would be nice but its not legal.
I stand corrected. Thanks for the info Buckshot.
I confirmed this by calling the local game commission office. I could have swore it was legal but obviously I was wrong or must have been confused with something else.
I did gather some other information. I was told that the game commission will NOT retreive the deer. I was told that if the landowner does not allow the hunter to retreive the animal there is nothing they can do. The animal must be left to rot. The landowner is NOT allowed to take the animal or move it since he/she was not the person who shot it. If they do then the game commission should be notified and the landowner should be fined.
